🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so here's the vibe: gil2bin takes a list of GenInfo integrated IDs (GIs) and flips them from text into binary… or, if you're feeling the other direction, from binary back into text. literally just that. one list in, one list out. 💅

✨ OPTIONS ✨

here's the rundown, no cap — a summary of the options is right below, so read it, bestie. 👑

• - — print the usage message. just the lonely little dash, serving main character energy 🎀
• -i filename — read the input from filename 📥
• -o filename — write the output to filename 📤
• -r — reverse mode, aka binary to text. the uno-reverse card of this whole operation 🔄
